Ravenswood Luminaria paid tribute to Sandy Hook victims

The 19th annual Holiday Memorial Ravenswood Cemetery Luminaria on Saturday, December 15, in which departed loved ones were remembered, was again a huge success.

The 19th annual Holiday Memorial Ravenswood Cemetery Luminaria on Saturday, December 15, in which departed loved ones were remembered, was again a huge success.

A special “glowing” memorial was for the children and adults of the Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut. A sign designed and drawn by Kaylee Icenhower and Breanna Cather was placed in the cemetery and had 26 “angel” luminaria bags formed in a heart around the sign.

This yearly event was made possible with the help of Dave Fletcher and Steve Cogar and Boy Scout Troop 43, Jason Miihlbach and the Ravenswood Middle and Ravenswood High School FFA, and Allen and Holly Palmer’s youth group from the First Baptist Church. The dedication of these young boys and girls really made a big impression on us, and the community should be proud of them.
